“…104 The best results, including our record 2.40 × 10 −3 mA/cm 2 current increase (cf. Table 2) following the implementation of a hybrid-emitter TTA system 20,111 , were obtained with the cuvette filled with Ag-coated beads. Figure 9 shows the history of the FOM obtained with the different classes of devices, as compared to the best result of a thin-film solar cell enhanced with lanthanoid upconversion.…”

“…Photon upconversion, the conversion of low‐energy light into higher‐energy emission, has a wide variety of applications in the fields of photodynamics therapy solar cell energy conversion, bioimaging, photocatalysis . Among all the existing approaches, photon upconversion via triplet–triplet annihilation (TTA) mechanism is attracting more attention for its various advantages such as noncoherent excitation source and remarkably high efficiency .…”

“…3 Several light trapping geometries and plasmonic effects are proposed to enhance the absorption in solar cells. [4][5][6][7][8] The analysis of the performance has to take into account not only the active layer where photogeneration is produced but also the auxiliary layers including electric contacts. These layers are of importance when considering the overall performance of the cell and cannot be neglected or forgotten in the modeling and simulation.…”
